Midnight Music Series
The Midnight Music Series caps off every night of the festival with fantastic local bands. Join us for this free event, 11:15 pm Thursday-Saturday, in the Joyce Doolittle Theatre.
Thursday - The Consonant C
Drawn together by love and a desire to make good music, The Consonant C is committed to creating interesting and inspiring experiences for their audiences. With two albums and a West Coast tour completed after less than two years of playing together, they have also proved themselves to be an uncommonly driven bunch.

Friday - WADE
WADE exists in music where Radiohead finds Arcade Fire and Led Zeppelin. The four members met on stage as actors in 2001 in the University of Calgary. Pursuing education as theatrical artists has enriched WADE's live show. WADE stands alone in style and artistic expression. The lyrics speak to the mind and the music speaks to the soul.

Saturday - The Funfuns
It’s pop! Not the goofy, sappy kind you hear on the radio though. And not the sleepy indie kind either. The Funfuns are influenced by the forgotten pop – the one with rock and roll in it. Although the band name puts a lot of pressure on their live shows, audience members really do seem to enjoy themselves, occasionally to the point of steamrolling pint glasses with their bodies.
Well, now it’s time for a list of band members and bands they’ve been in: Adam Oberg, Sarah Ford, Andrew Payne, Kevin Boyer, Suicide Wrists, Sheglank’d Shoulders, Sudden Infant Dance Syndrome, Cryptomaniacs, and Cities and Plains.
